(06/04 13:01:50) Argo: if you have a question that cant wait, pm them to me, and ill add them to queue

(06/04 13:02:07) Argo: *do NOT* press the blue button behind me while speakers are talking,

(06/04 13:02:22) Argo: and if we’re short on time we may skip questions for certain speakers,

(06/04 13:02:28) Argo: did i miss anything?

(06/04 13:04:04) Argo: 🙂 thanks, Kor,

(06/04 13:04:18) Scharminius wishes KI would give those timestamps too

(06/04 13:04:25) Minasunda: lol only for more confusing

(06/04 13:04:38) Argo: alright, so, opening up with initial announcements,

(06/04 13:05:11) Argo: Cyan Ventures, Cyan’s Publishing arm, has helped other companies release two new games this last month

(06/04 13:05:27) Argo: these are: AREA MAN LIVES, and The Last Clockwinder,

(06/04 13:05:48) Argo: theyre both VR Titles, so for the VR enthusiasts out there,

(06/04 13:05:59) Argo: 🙂 take a look!

(06/04 13:06:41) Argo: Mysterium has announced, and updated, new Covid Policies for this year’s meeting,

(06/04 13:06:56) Argo: you can find a full list of details at: https://mysterium.net/covid-19/

(06/04 13:07:21) Argo: Early Bird registration for Mysterium is now closed,

(06/04 13:07:41) Argo: but you can still register for both the convention, as well as for a Meow Wolf excursion trip on the website

(06/04 13:08:11) Argo: Meow Wolf tickets are 35$ per person, (Normally 45$!)

(06/04 13:08:12) Argo: Important Note: the cancellation deadline to obtain a refund for this will be June 30. We will be unable to make any exceptions, as at that time we will need to prepay for nonrefundable tickets.

(06/04 13:08:21) Argo: –The Website,

(06/04 13:09:23) Argo: for those unfamiliar, Meow Wolf is a company that has several, ah… Unique kinds of interactive art installations

(06/04 13:09:28) Argo: across the US,

(06/04 13:09:32) Argo: one of them is in Denver!

(06/04 13:09:55) Argo: think of them like real life video games, in a sense.

(06/04 13:10:32) Argo: event submission deadline has passed, but the Writing and Artworks table submissions are still OPEN!

(06/04 13:10:41) Argo: until JULY 31st

(06/04 13:11:44) Argo: i’ve only got three speakers on my roster at the moment, Rehn, Korov, and Susa’n. did anyone have anything else theyd like to speak about tonight before i begin calling folks up?

(06/04 13:11:47) Argo: ill add you to the queue if so

(06/04 13:11:58) Dni_seeker 5: I have one thing I would like to say

(06/04 13:12:29) Dni_seeker 5: I would like to announce that I will be restoring the Age of Todelmer

(06/04 13:12:41) Dni_seeker 5: If that is allowed, of course

(06/04 13:12:46) Argo: settle down, kid,

(06/04 13:12:58) Argo: Todelmer’s in the same murky waters as Direbo and the other MystV ages

(06/04 13:13:20) Dni_seeker 5: Yes, we may have to sort out a few things before I can actually begin

(06/04 13:13:42) Doobes: Direbo is actually on Minkata Alpha right now for testing, but we’re waiting for an official word from Cyan about content from Myst V.

(06/04 13:13:52) Argo motions to Doobes,

(06/04 13:13:56) Doobes: Basically testing the waters at the moment.

(06/04 13:14:06) Doobes: It may take awhile given they’re busy.

(06/04 13:14:08) Emor D’ni Lap: Dni_seeker 5 can do what he wants with Todelmer….releasing it is a different matter.

(06/04 13:14:21) Argo: we can’t proceed with Myst V stuff until Cyan gives a go ahead, and beyond that, I believe Doobes has his eyes set on those ages as well?

(06/04 13:14:29) Argo shrugs

(06/04 13:14:40) Doobes: I’m working on them, but they’re not just mine to work on. 😉

(06/04 13:14:45) Argo: fair,

(06/04 13:14:50) Argo: anyone else have anything to say?

(06/04 13:14:53) Dni_seeker 5: I said that I would restore Todelmer, I said nothing about releasing it

(06/04 13:14:56) Argo: queue’s open…?

(06/04 13:15:04) Argo is checking something out

(06/04 13:15:13) Argo: no? okay,

(06/04 13:15:17) Argo: first up is CT Hostess Susa’n

(06/04 13:15:24) Argo beckons you

(06/04 13:15:41) CT Hostess Susa’n: MIrphak?

(06/04 13:15:53) CT Hostess Susa’n beckons you

(06/04 13:15:59) Argo: oh? multiple speakers?

(06/04 13:16:13) Argo is curious now…

(06/04 13:16:25) CT Hostess Susa’n: “Cavern Tours” are a serious of walking tours that cover every Age in MOULa.

(06/04 13:16:29) Ro”Jethhe: Happy Belated Birthday Mirphak

(06/04 13:16:38) Starchild is curious

(06/04 13:16:40) CT Hostess Susa’n: We also share Myst-related content on the Internet on twitch.tv.

(06/04 13:16:54) Mirphak: thanks Ro”Jethhe 🙂

(06/04 13:17:03) CT Hostess Susa’n: I have exciting news: The next season of Cavern Tours will begin this month AND we will be adding additional personnel to the tours!

(06/04 13:17:20) CT Hostess Susa’n: First, the monthly schedule will be different from last season.

(06/04 13:17:39) CT Hostess Susa’n: Each tour will be held the FOURTH Saturday of each month instead of the second Saturday.

(06/04 13:17:55) CT Hostess Susa’n: The time will remain the same: Each tour will last from 11:00 to 13:00 KI time.

(06/04 13:18:02) CT Hostess Susa’n: The next tour is Saturday, June 25.

(06/04 13:18:13) NoMore: “cavern tours” not to be mistaken for “fan age tours”…

(06/04 13:18:18) CT Hostess Susa’n: Please meet us in Cavern Tour’s Hood at or before 11:00 KI time for a brief orientation.

(06/04 13:18:35) CT Hostess Susa’n: Please also log into twitch.tv/LWF58 for the live-stream for the tour.

(06/04 13:18:47) CT Hostess Susa’n: Then we will link together to the Age to be toured.

(06/04 13:19:06) CT Hostess Susa’n: Second, D’ni historian Larry LeDeay will reprise his role as our tour guide.

(06/04 13:19:18) CT Hostess Susa’n: However, guess who will be returning as a guest guide?

(06/04 13:19:26) shokhootahn Rehn bows

(06/04 13:19:37) shokhootahn Rehn: (as r’Tayrtahn)

(06/04 13:19:52) CT Hostess Susa’n: Our ubiquitous historian and D’ni language instructor r’Tayrtahn a/k/a Rehn!

(06/04 13:19:53) CT Hostess Susa’n bows

(06/04 13:20:13) CT Hostess Susa’n: And that’s not all!

(06/04 13:20:24) CT Hostess Susa’n: Guess who will be returning as a host for the tours?

(06/04 13:20:36) Boywhith: MIRPHAK!!!

(06/04 13:20:36) CT Hostess Susa’n: The person who formed the idea to conduct tours: Zeke!

(06/04 13:20:48) CT Hostess Susa’n: And …

(06/04 13:21:04) CT Hostess Susa’n: Let’s not forget our busiest and hardest-working grey hat!

(06/04 13:21:38) CT Hostess Susa’n: Mirphak, who operates Mir-o-Bot, will once again provide technical services for each tour, including sharing his Ages.

(06/04 13:21:46) Mirphak kneels down…

(06/04 13:21:50) Frobozz clap clap clap

(06/04 13:21:55) CT Hostess Susa’n: We hope to see you on June 25!

(06/04 13:21:59) CT Hostess Susa’n: Are there any questions?

(06/04 13:22:16) CT Hostess Susa’n looks around for a bit

(06/04 13:22:17) Argo: no questions in queue,

(06/04 13:22:25) CT Hostess Susa’n: Thank you for your time

(06/04 13:22:27) CT Hostess Susa’n bows

(06/04 13:22:28) Argo: 🙂

(06/04 13:22:34) Argo: and thank you for the announcements!

(06/04 13:22:46) Argo: rehn, would you like to stay on stage for your usual announcements?

(06/04 13:22:53) shokhootahn Rehn: lol

(06/04 13:23:12) shokhootahn Rehn: As always, I have two separate announcements. One is for the D’ni Language Class and the other one is for r’Tayrtahn’s Story Night.

(06/04 13:23:25) shokhootahn Rehn: First, the language classes…

(06/04 13:23:40) shokhootahn Rehn: There are evening classes available on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday evenings, starting at 20:00, 21:00 or 22:00 KI time, depending on the student’s schedule. There are daytime openings Monday through Friday, starting at either 12:00 KI time, 13:00 KI time, or 14:00 KI time, depending on the student’s schedule. Contact me by PM to set up a day and a time.

(06/04 13:24:15) shokhootahn Rehn: Though, daytime availability is subject to change with little or no notice.

(06/04 13:24:33) shokhootahn Rehn: If you are going to contact me by KI-mail, remember to inclue your KI #.

(06/04 13:24:50) shokhootahn Rehn: I can be found on Discord at r’Tayrtahn#1317.

(06/04 13:25:06) shokhootahn Rehn: As always, current students can find last-minute updates to class times on the left-hand imager.

(06/04 13:26:10) shokhootahn Rehn: Currently, there are two students taking the classes and are at various stages of completion.

(06/04 13:26:22) shokhootahn Rehn: The Guild of Instructors’ Hood will be open and public unless a class is in session.

(06/04 13:26:34) shokhootahn Rehn: Are there any questions?

(06/04 13:26:52) shokhootahn Rehn: Moving on…

(06/04 13:27:03) shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r’Taytahn’s Story Night.

(06/04 13:27:17) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night – Europe and original Story Night are in synch so you will hear the same story at night as you do in the afternoon.

(06/04 13:27:38) shokhootahn Rehn: Today, and for about the next 14 weeks, will be the story of the kings of D’ni. There may be a king (or two) with an extremely short history that will get combined with the next king or previous king. Tonight’s story will be about one of D’ni’s most beloved kings!

(06/04 13:28:33) shokhootahn Rehn: I am recording Story Night for (eventual) upload to my YouTube channel (r’Tayrtahn). Please do not PM me during the story unless you want to see your message displayed for the entire internet. 😉

(06/04 13:29:01) Korov’ev: Ji!

(06/04 13:29:06) shokhootahn Rehn: Currently, I am caught up with video compression. Unfortunately, I have a sizable backlog of videos to upload. To my channel subscribers, please be patient; I a slowly working through it. 🙂

(06/04 13:29:45) shokhootahn Rehn: Actually, Kor, it’s Kedri 🙂

(06/04 13:29:55) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is held in the public neighborhood of Tsahno’s Hood every Saturday.

(06/04 13:30:14) shokhootahn Rehn: Original Story Night is held at 23:30 KI time on Saturday night. We start gathering at the hood’s fountain starting at 23:00 KI time.

(06/04 13:30:44) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night – Europe is held at 14:00 KI time on Saturday afternoon. We start gathering at the hood’s fountain starting at 13:30 KI time except for AGM Saturdays, when it starts at 14:00 KI or 15 minutes after the AGM, whichever is later.

(06/04 13:31:15) shokhootahn Rehn: (or 30 minutes later)

(06/04 13:31:32) shokhootahn Rehn: I also post changes on the left-hand imager in the hood.

(06/04 13:31:47) shokhootahn Rehn: Should I need to cancel one of the stories at the last minute, I will try to aprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news. 🙂

(06/04 13:32:09) shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.

(06/04 13:32:32) shokhootahn Rehn: r’Tayrtahn announces the start of Story Night through buddy chat. If you would like to receive the announcements, please send r’T a KI mail (with your KI number included in the text) and he’ll add you to his buddies list. His KI number is 58324. KI mails do not identify the KI number of the sender so it must be added to the body of the text.

(06/04 13:33:12) shokhootahn Rehn: Some have sent messages to be added but have not included their KI number so they were unable to be added.

(06/04 13:33:26) shokhootahn Rehn: We hope to see you there!

(06/04 13:33:32) shokhootahn Rehn: Any questions?

(06/04 13:33:32) Argo: one question in queue:

(06/04 13:33:41) Argo: CT Hostess Susan: Has the content changed in the last five years, re: Language instructuons?

(06/04 13:34:32) Frobozz: ?

(06/04 13:34:42) shokhootahn Rehn: Thank you for the question, Susa’n. There have been updates to most of the lessons, adding clarity to the instruction. 🙂

(06/04 13:34:52) Thumbs up from CT Hostess Susa’n

(06/04 13:35:23) shokhootahn Rehn: Any other questions?

(06/04 13:35:27) Argo: no other questions in queue.

(06/04 13:36:34) Korov’ev: I bring you the usual update on the Fan Age Expeditions, on Deep Island!

(06/04 13:36:41) Korov’ev: In May, we started with a quest to recover Quilla’s piano through Elonin, the Beach house, the Cafe and Tsameti.

(06/04 13:36:52) Korov’ev: Then we visited a few Ahra Pahts shells we missed last time, including the one with the black fortress.

(06/04 13:37:03) Korov’ev: We then visited the prison Age of Pakin, the playground of Hayal, the beaches of T’vel,

(06/04 13:37:11) Korov’ev: the lake of Ahreeuhtahv, the castle of Chamassa and the memorial of Aquh.

(06/04 13:37:32) Korov’ev: we’ll get lost in cubic mazes by J’Kla, and close the month with a few Ages by Justintime.

(06/04 13:37:42) Korov’ev: The expeditions are on Sunday at 11:00 KIT, starting in the shard’s only hood (which you can reach quickly by typing “/hood”).

(06/04 13:38:20) Argo: none in queue

(06/04 13:38:27) Korov’ev bows

(06/04 13:38:27) Korov’ev: Back to my seat then!

(06/04 13:38:31) Argo: thanks Kor,

(06/04 13:38:33) Emor D’ni Lap applauds

(06/04 13:38:42) Argo: alright, i was going to call for last second speakers, but we have one!

(06/04 13:38:45) Argo: Darryl Pogue!

(06/04 13:38:48) Argo beckons you

(06/04 13:39:18) Scharminius makes a penguin-cheering noise

(06/04 13:39:18) Darryl Pogue: Hi everyone 🙂

(06/04 13:39:24) Emor D’ni Lap waves hello

(06/04 13:39:26) Darryl Pogue: I don’t believe this was previous announced, so the H’uru team is excited to release version 0.13a of the korman Blender plugin.

(06/04 13:39:27) philipgr: Hi

(06/04 13:39:28) Mystlander waves hello

(06/04 13:39:34) Darryl Pogue: .If you’ve marvelled at the sights of Elonin and Veelay Tsahvahn and wished you could create your own Ages, this is the plugin for you.

(06/04 13:39:42) Doobes: Hehehe.

(06/04 13:39:45) Darryl Pogue: More information about korman, including tutorials, can be found on the https://guildofwriters.org website

(06/04 13:39:56) Darryl Pogue: In other H’uru news, we are continuing with engine improvements including many quality-of-life fixes (thanks Zaroth!) and content fixes (thanks Hazado!)

(06/04 13:40:35) Darryl Pogue: if you’re interested in keeping up with development news, join the OpenUru discord

(06/04 13:40:46) Darryl Pogue: Thanks!

(06/04 13:41:08) Emor D’ni Lap: great praise to all the developers’ behind-the-scenes labor!

(06/04 13:41:27) Argo: alright, this NOW my ‘is there any last minute speakers?’ request!

(06/04 13:41:52) Argo looks around for a bit

(06/04 13:42:07) Argo: hm, cavcon, one second…?

(06/04 13:42:25) Argo: the latest numbers I have are for April

(06/04 13:42:45) Argo: nothing for last month yet sorry.

(06/04 13:43:01) Dni_seeker 5: I have a question

(06/04 13:43:15) Dni_seeker 5: How is the lake-lighting going?

(06/04 13:43:28) Argo: two answers for that:

(06/04 13:43:34) shokhootahn Rehn: Yes but he hasn’t responded, yet.

(06/04 13:43:34) Argo: IC: Ongoing restoration is going on

(06/04 13:43:48) Argo: OOC: I believe Hazado is working on the final coding required to get that working.

(06/04 13:44:18) Argo: animations are ready, just needs a model for automatically switching between states.

(06/04 13:44:48) Korov’ev: drop two large electrodes in the lake and yell “it’s alive!”, it may work :p

(06/04 13:45:00) Doobes: LOL!

(06/04 13:45:05) Mystlander roars with laughter

(06/04 13:45:08) CT Hostess Susa’n laughs

(06/04 13:45:14) Dni_seeker 5: HAHAHAHA

(06/04 13:45:15) IwonK: or a giant firemarble 😛

(06/04 13:45:17) NoMore: 😀

(06/04 13:45:31) Scharminius: could be unexploded pellets lying around in the lake 😛

(06/04 13:45:34) Argo: in other restoration news, I believe we’re soon nearing the finalization dates for this next quarters release. As I’ve heard the goal is to get the update in-game before August for the Mysterium GoMePub Decos,

(06/04 13:45:40) CT Hostess Susa’n: O_O

(06/04 13:46:04) Doobes: 😉

(06/04 13:46:05) Argo: no official announcement has been made on that front yet, but if you’re in the testing circles, I’d keep my ears open

(06/04 13:46:21) Thumbs up from Mystlander

(06/04 13:46:22) Doobes: Again, for those that can’t get to the in-person one.

(06/04 13:46:27) Mr. Nice Hat: That Bahro sounded excited by that

(06/04 13:46:36) CT Hostess Susa’n laughs

(06/04 13:46:44) Doobes: No, that was me thinking about how much I still need to model. 😛

(06/04 13:46:45) Dni_seeker 5: please don’t obduct me again

(06/04 13:46:46) Argo: yes, there’s a few planned Mysterium activities for here in Cavern alongside the usual things in person,

(06/04 13:47:04) Argo: i believe Calum has intent to make a marker game for this years mysterium

(06/04 13:47:25) Argo: though unlike last years duality mission, it will be one mission focusing on Naryani poem words I think?

(06/04 13:48:03) Argo: we should also have a fix in for marker games to prevent them breaking by that point, so

(06/04 13:48:13) Argo: hopefully it wont break down like last years mysterium missions did.
